Shakespeare's sonnet number 53, first four lines:

What is your substance, whereof are you made
That millions of strange shadows on you tend?
Since every one hath, every one, one shade,
And you but one, can every shadow lend.

Also, Gradus and Sudarg, anagrams. As is sugar'd, as in Francis Meres, 1598, on Shakespeare's "sugar'd sonnets among his private friends".

Just sayin'.
